The seditious actions of GOP Members of Congress will not succeed on January 6th. Joe Biden will be inaugurated POTUS January 20th at noon. However, if their ACTION was sucessful it would destroy the government of the United States and cause the collapse of the Republic.
This is an unpardonable offense. It is an unspeakable betrayal of the United States and the sacrifices of generations of Patriots. It is fueled by Trumps incoherent delusions and disordered ramblings. It is fueled by ruthless cynicism and dishonesty; cowardice and self interest.
It is advanced by unpatriotic men and women like @MarkMeadows @marcshort45 @kayleighmcenany @SenTedCruz @SenRonJohnson @MarshaBlackburn @marcorubio @HawleyMO @GOPLeader. Everyone of them knows that @JoeBiden won the election in the same way they know the earth is round and the
Moon landing was real. They are wretched collaborators in a conspiracy to poison faith and belief in the virtues and legitimacy of American democracy. They are doing grievous damage to our country and humiliating the nation abroad with their lies and calaumnies. They are willing
To end the American experiment in the name of Trump. We are at an unprecedented moment in the life of the American nation. The people who have brought us here will have well earned the disgraceful epitaphs that will be their eternal shame. They will all have earned their
Places on a list of America’s most disgraceful villains and ignominious names.

They aren’t. That’s not the point. The point of comparison is the bootlickers around them. The collaborationist and weak of soul, integrity, purpose and conviction. The point is @marcorubio and @tedcruz are party men. It doesn’t matter which. They lust for power and have no
Connection to America and our ideas and ideals. If their sedition were to succeed it would end the Republic. A generation ago there would have been a national consensus that these are soft and unprincipled men. There would be near unanimity that their character was loathsome
And repellent. They are avatars of self interest, greed, corruption, cowardice. They represent all of the most unworthy vices. @tedcruz does this all, cynically in the service of a man who slandered his father and called his wife ugly and insane. He is the definition of a punk

Here is a question for Corporate America @USChamber. How many large corporations have signed statements in support of BLM and expressed goals around increasing racial diversity? How many millions of dollars have some of those very same companies donated to political entities
that have funded the very Senators and Members of Congress that are now engaged in an effort to throw out millions of Black votes for the purposes of keeping a President who lost the election in the White House? How many companies have pumped millions of dollars into entities
controlled by @GOPLeader ? @ProjectLincoln is getting organized for this fight. We will do our best to bring Companies, Firms, Agencies, Boards of Directors, CEO’s, Senior management and trade associations into the sunlight on these issues. We will seek to strangle the money

Trumpism is an American autocratic movement with Fascistic markers. There are seven specific parts that comprise its core 1. THE LEADER. Donald Trump is the unquestioned leader of this movement. It is a cult of personality and there are no serious challengers against his (1)
leadership. (2) Thugs. The Proud Boys are but one example in a toxic stew of heavily armed Militia’s, White Nationalists and other right wing extremists. As is always the case, their ranks are filled with people on the fringes of society; the lonely, dispossessed, aggrieved (2)
and resentful. Not so long ago, there would have been a near societal consensus around describing these people as losers. These people bring the menace of violence to politics and are kin to the same thuggish rabble that were wearing brown and black shirts 100 years ago. (3)

The die is cast for the Republican Party. It will be destroyed on January 6th in much the same way the Whig party was destroyed by the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska Act in 1854. The act unraveled the Missouri compromise and allowed for the westward expansion of slavery. 1/
The party could not survive its factionalism. There could be no more accommodation, compromise and partnership between pro-slavery and anti-slavery Whigs. A new political party was born, the Republican Party. That party will divide into irreconcilable factions on January 6th. 2/
The 6th will commence a political civil war inside the GOP. The autocratic side will roll over the pro-democracy remnant of the GOP like the Wehrmacht did the Belgian Army in 1940. The ‘22 GOP primary season will be a blood letting. The 6th will be a loyalty test. The purge 3/

2021 will be a hard year in the life of the American nation. There is a great struggle that lies before us and our disbelief at its arrival must not blind us to the lethal danger it poses to the American experiment. 1/
The poisonous bounty of Trump’s catastrophic Presidency is ready for harvest and the whole world will get to watch his seditious antics play out during a joint session of Congress on January 6th. It will play out as a farce and it will fail. Nearly 100 years on America will 2/
have it’s version of the Beer Hall Putsch. The danger lies in the act, not the outcome. We are in a dangerous moment and I’d like to try my best to explain how I see it. Before I start, there is an important matter of fact which unfortunately needs restating. @JoeBiden won 3/

I’m speaking to you in a low and steady voice right now, just the way anybody would talk to an insane person. Are you ok? Are you looking past the Senate and thinking of trying to beat out @ZacEfron for the Bundy role in the next biopic? Are you trying to showcase sociopathy
for the nation? Your hypocrisy is evidence of a delusional personality that sees virtue where everyone else sees cowardice and craven dishonesty. You are an American Vichy. You abandoned every principal you once claimed fidelity towards to stand as an apologist for the most
Malignant and incompetent President the nation has ever had. His lethal lying and your complicit silence have killed hundreds of thousands of people. He has poisoned the country with his idiocy, racial animus, conspiracy theories and lies. He has assaulted the rule of law just
